Lone Star PACE Facilitates $27M in Retroactive C-PACE Financing for Luxury Hotel in Dallas Arts District

Financing proceeds will recapitalize previously installed sustainable upgrades that save energy and water, including improvements to the building’s envelope, electrical, lighting, HVAC and plumbing systems.

Lee McCormick, president of Lone Star PACE, said: “It was an honor to partner with HALL Group on this groundbreaking luxury hotel in Downtown Dallas’ burgeoning Arts District. Retroactive C-PACE financing is the perfect complement to projects that aim to advance sustainable development without sacrificing returns in the process.”

C-PACE helps reduce energy and water consumption at commercial and industrial buildings by providing low-cost, long-term, fixed-rate financing for sustainable upgrades. Property owners can use C-PACE to finance new construction as well as building renovations or retrofits.

Designed by HKS Architects with interiors by Bentel & Bentel, the 11-story HALL Arts Hotel includes 183 guest rooms and 19 suites, all featuring privately curated art collections. In addition to lodging, HALL Arts offers premier event space for corporate and social gatherings. An award-winning eatery, Ellie’s Restaurant & Lounge, is also available on-site.

Mike Canning, senior vice president of capital markets for HALL Group, said: “We are proud to partner with Lone Star PACE on the PACE financing for HALL Arts Hotel. C-PACE continues to be a positive product for advancing sustainability goals and an efficient form of financing in today’s environment.”
